Top quality content! Really enjoyed this interview. This is truly a work of art! :D

It was awesome getting to see the process of how they rake the sand. Love the quiet sound to this and the different angles you filmed at.

I loved this the first time I watched it and I love it even more the 2nd time around. ❤❤❤

There is much depth to this video. Quite a contrast to the busy lives we live in a big city. Makes me pause and think. 🙏🙏

Beautiful and inspiring garden. Any information what kind of sand they use for the garden? It seem the sands not very fine. Are they pumice stone or else?

that's great!!!! I love Japanese gardens.❤❤❤

This video is a treasure, thank you very much!

It's always a pleasure to see your video. Thank you. I hope I will offer you a coffee in real life when I will return in Kyoto. I hope we can talk about japanese gardens in Japan and in France.

Exquisite. Arigato.

Absolutely magnificent. Your video It brings the peace, joy and serenity this garden aims to do. Excellent job! Thanks. At what time must I go, to see them prepare the garden?

Great👍

I’m assuming trailing the rake behind oneself accounts for the footsteps otherwise disrupting the pattern of the garden.

Very clean❤ home like hotel...

Domo arigato ! 💙🌿🌱

Super Nice.

🌻

Very inspirational. What is the title of the person you interviewed? He is in charge of the shrine? I raked the sand in my Japanese garden early this morning. I thought about this video while I was doing it.

😍

凄いです♡ I visited Ryoan-ji 2016 and loved the peaceful location.

Somehow, I thought the stones were much larger! 🤯

This could not be more wrong in my heart and eyes. Either the young man was simply passing on his own feelings and that would be ideal. or as I understood more, it was the way this garden of stone has changed the views over time? As an artist and also a lover of both sculpture and the Japanese ethics to form and a gardens balance. I have little to add, except for the great respect and humble feelings they try so hard to make clear. Yet in this area, the very first I see, is a marked unbalance to the placed layout and not a deliberate one at that. I also found the tiny stone at the very end in battle with the bad design of the boarder, sticking into the near perfect rectangle. Yet what struck me most, was the walls panels, each depicting in my opinion a work of art of their own. Very beautiful and would have taken separate photos od each one both in color and black and white. The stones were missing a key-stone, one a third taller than the others and yet grouped with two of the weaker ones. Finally, what the young priest said about the garden, left me feeling cold. He followed a doctrine, where sherry blossoms and the reminders od Autom were not to be part of a garden. He also geometrically wanted perfection for his straight lines and well life, is far from being about how straight things line up. In fact the opposite is true and that is where we learn most, from falling or wisdom in knowing that when a line is not quite straight, it has gained something more than the sum of itself. I think that the process (as I will call it) of raking the area, must be to reflect the passing of a feeling or thought or to work in harmony with the unmoving rock elements already in place. Maybe if we draw from what we already know, we can shed more light. I know that I feel comforted by seeing repeated patterns and also at ease, because then we compare with what has already passed too. It´s the same feelings I got from visiting the hardware store with my father and seeing a barrel of screws or nails all looking the same. Or maybe those huge jars of sweets lining the walls at a sweetshop! If picking up a leaf, because it chose to land there is important only because the pattern belief can work on it´s own, then I think they are missing out on the journey for the sake of only seeing a simple goal. Thank you for this moment and documentary, I hope my thoughts helped you on your quest for better garden designs a little more Hugs from Sweden 🙏🌱
